Talnar has a few difficulties in building the team. Laurentiu Rus is suspendet, while Gabriel Bostina has suffered an injury in the game against FC Vaslui. The place in the middlefield will be taken by Djakaridja Kone. The most important absence could be Gabi Torje's, who is still not recovered from his hip injury.
